श्री भगवानुवाच
मया प्रसन्नेन तवार्जुनेदं
रूपं परं दर्शितमात्मयोगात्।
तेजोमयं विश्वमनन्तमाद्यं
यन्मे त्वदन्येन न दृष्टपूर्वम्।।11.47।।
।।11.47।।श्रीभगवान् बोले -- हे अर्जुन मैंने प्रसन्न होकर अपनी सामर्थ्यसे यह अत्यन्त श्रेष्ठ? तेजोमय? सबका आदि और अनन्त विश्वरूप तुझे दिखाया है? जिसको तुम्हारे सिवाय पहले किसीने नहीं देखा है।

This is illustrated by describing it as having no beginning, middle or end. It is primeval, namely, it constitutes the foundation of all beings other than Myself. It has nevr been seen before by any one other than you. Such a form is now revealed to you, who are My devotee, by Me who am gracious, by My own Yoga, namely, by the power of willing the truth associated with Me. Sri Krsna proceeds to say, It is not possible that I can be realised as I am, through any means except exclusive Bhakti.
